Le Personnage Principale

I wish I was the main character in a novel.

I wish my life had perfect plot points that would send me on an adventure.

An adventure in which I find reason and purpose.

An adventure where I meet the people who support me no matter what and help me discover who I am.

Where every hardship we face brings us closer together.

And every trauma in my life I conquer and rise from the ashes, a brilliant flame fanned into a significantly stronger me.

I wish I had the perfect love story.

Full of perfect moments where two people are entirely consumed by a love so strong and fierce that it devours them whole.

A love so passionate that the spark never dies and happily ever after isn't a myth but the truth that I live.

I wish I had a plot diagram.

Where everything in my life is planned out and follows the pattern specifically devised for me.

Where the resolution to my story not only completes me as a person, but ends happily and in my favor.

One that I've accepted as The End.

I wish my story was interesting enough for people to demand a book 2 or 3 or 4.

A story so captivating that no one else's can compare.

A story so filled to the brim with excitement, adventure and fun that you finish the book in one night; completely unable to put it down.

However, my life isn't interesting or exciting. It isn't filled with adventure and passionate romance. There is no set plot line to my life. I have not yet found my reason or purpose. My story is not even remotely close to perfect.

But, God, how I wish it was.
